Mario remembers his father buying Floresta when he was a kid. After years of hard work from his parents to provide for the family, Mario believes it is now his time to provide for them. He learned everything about growing coffee from his father and has stepped into the role of managing the farm and 10,000 Castillo trees.

Mario is grateful for the education that he got from his parents, especially the love for the farm and how important it is to value everything that the land offers.
